I've never seen some of the other proposals so this is indeed a eye-opener. Excellent work.

Those are brilliant! :)

I am using Design Proposal no.2 as a basis for a fictional conversion of the incomplete Mackensen class battlecruiser into an aircraft carrier.

Now that DOES sound interesting! Can't wait to see the finished product!

Thanks everyone for the comment. Those concepts are not exactly something that you could find in a book or other publication so far.

So, prepare for a large wall of text, I have updated the previous post with a lot of information, in case anyone is interested.

Looking forward to that as well. I have entertained the thought myself, but so far, I has not been much than only a thought...

Many thanks for adding the text, certainly makes things clearer and I've learnt a fair bit about the planned conversion that I wasn't aware of before.

Wow! Lovely work! Amazing topic. Makes me wonder. There is no such impression drawings/plans known as she was supposed to be build as passengervessel?

I'm guessing that the D.VII has a slow enough landing speed as not to need arrestor wires.
